New 2018 Clomid AND Femara support threads!

[onebigwish]

Currently I’m on CD1 i planned to take clomid days3-7 for best odds of conception. I want to take it at night because of the side effects but shall i take it the night of CD2 or CD3?

It doesn't make any difference. You can start it CD 2, 3, or 4 and still get good results. Just pick a day and good luck!

So Friday night I had the strong "heavy ovary" feeling, and today (Saturday) they felt lighter again and my ewcm was all gone. So I'm just going to say today was O, and I'm not even going to take more OPKs this cycle or temp.

I've marked April 27 as POAS day.

If I'm not pregnant this cycle, I'm considering taking time off, as this is my third consecutive Clomid round.

I just took my first dose of clomid! I’m so nervous ��

Wishing you the best of luck MrsEnglish! Keeping everything crossed!

I am day 23 now and still no pos opk but lots of ov signs so who knows - maybe tomorrow? Still baffled by this cycle - it seems v late to ov. I has pos opk on day 16 on my first Femara cycle. I keep thinking maybe I had a chemical or something and it has thrown everything off kilter.

Either that, or I have started thinking I have some other issues like hypothyroidism or PCOS (although I have v low amh and my previous scans haven’t shown this - I guess I am just trying to find a reason for my tendency to have late ov both unmedicated and now this). Although I don’t recall an ov later than day 22 before. Might make a doctors appointment- although not sure if I could have things like hormone levels tested while using Femara? I am going to also start the atomic fertility diet. I have just been doing general LE up to now.

I also hope if not preggo I have a longer luteal. Anything over 9 days will be great. I must keep remembering though that I am only 4 cycles post partum! My son is 7 months.

I probably just need to chill the heck out and not do stuff like do opks and obsess about everything! That might move ov closer. Also pleased that I have realised that I was doing E4D wrong! Will now do what I would call every three days - one day on and two days off!

Sorry - last random thing - I might up my dose to 7.5mg next cycle to give me a stronger o as worried my short luteal is due to weak ov. If anyone has any thoughts or experience on this, would appreciate it.

Good luck, it’s so hard to not think about every little thing we could do or not do isn’t it

CD24 and think I had a temp rise today so think I ovulated but no pos opk. The more I think about it, the more I think I have PCOS tendencies but without the cysts part. Or just lazy ovaries in general. Thinking of taking pregnitude for the next cycle as I hear it sways girl but also helps ovulation in general. I took something with myoinsotol the two cycles before I conceived DS2 and it did help me ov on cd19 - moved it from day 21 so it did something.
